Congratulations to our friends Ryan Flaro and Scott Lefebvre for their hard work and dedication to fishing the Berkley B1 and coming out the other side as the 2016 B1 Champions!

Ryan and Scott put together a solid bag on day 1, finishing second place in a tight battle with a few other teams. In fact the top 10 teams had a good shot at taking the prize going into Day 2 and it was really anyone’s prize to take.

In the end it was the very closest of weights that separated first from third place with Team Radioworld victorious!

Congratulations guys, you made us proud!

Here are a few words from Ryan Flaro….

“Wow is all I can say! What a roller coaster ride!

I still can’t believe we pulled it off with such a close battle. What an amazing group of talented anglers and finally , we get to B the 1. Thank you everyone for hundreds of messages of support on this amazing ride of a lifetime! For once in my life I’m speechless!

First and foremost thank Radioworld, Remax Cornwall, Malyon Excavation, and Gajo Baits. Without you in our corner we would never be able to do what we love to do.

I wish to thank my wife Gabie and daughter Meadow for endless support, keeping us positive and allowing us to spend the countless hours doing what we love to do while standing in wind, rain , cold or heat, cheering us on no matter how we finished all season long!”

and a few from Scott Lefebvre…

“What a wild ride! I still can’t believe it’s true!

I’d like to say thanks to my wife Linda & and son Tysen for putting up with my countless days on the water, my partner Ryan, all the B1 competitors, (especially the top 3 for such an exciting finish) and last but not least Ben Woo and the B1 Staff for putting on such a great event.”

SmartSDR for iOS allows operators to run SmartSDR on an iPad® or iPhone®

Essen, Germany and Austin TX – August 5, 2016: FlexRadio Systems and Marcus Roskosch, DL8MRE announced today a partnership to develop, market and sell a client interface application for both iPad® and iPhone® devices. SmartSDR™ for iOS was designed to offer FLEX-6300, FLEX-6500 and FLEX-6700 owners the ability to operate from home or remotely through their mobile device. SmartSDR for iOS provides many of the great features of SmartSDR for Windows® plus a few extras.

Full and Remote Control

SmartSDR for iOS can almost fully replace SmartSDR for Windows® and most of its features can now be used from your mobile device without the necessity to use a PC. You can operate in any mode, such as SSB or even CWX including sidetone.

In addition, the application can run along with programs on your PC such as N1MM or CW Skimmer or even along with SmartSDR for Windows as Remote Control.

Extras

On top of that, SmartSDR for iOS offers a visual Band plan and DX-Cluster integration. Band limits, modes and DX-Cluster spots will be displayed right inside the panadapter.

SmartSDR for iOS supports multi-tasking on newer iPads so it can run side-by-side and concurrently with any other app on your device.

To run SmartSDR for iOS the operator will need a FLEX-6000 series radio, an Apple device such as an iPad®, iPhone® or iPod® Touch running iOS 9.0 or greater. A newer iPad (3, Air 1 or newer) or iPhone (5s or better) is recommended.

To run this app at your home, nothing else but a regular Wi-Fi connection is needed. You can immediately start using the app.

To run the app and to operate your FLEX-6000 series radio from outside your shack, you need to have a VPN connection to your home network.

SmartSDR for iOS will be available from the App Store starting August 5, 2016 and is priced at US $49.99. Optional features such as the DX-Cluster and Band Plan are priced at US $4.99. For more information on SmartSDR for iOS client or FlexRadio Systems visit www.flexradio.com.
